Not Guilty of Shooting Says Defendant

A shooting defendant was arraigned before DC Superior Court Judge Errol Arthur, on May 8. 

Marvin Smith, 31, is charged with aggravated assault knowingly while armed, possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, and unlawful possession of a firearm by a convict, for his alleged involvement in a shooting that occurred on March 22, 2022, on the 2400 block of Elvans Road, SE. One individual sustained four gunshot wounds. 

During the hearing, Smith’s defense attorney, Quo Mieko Judkins, alerted the court he was pleading not guilty to all charges and asserted his constitutional rights, including the right to a speedy trial. 

Parties are slated to return May 13.
